' To allwhom. it may concern:

Be it known that I, -HENRY B. CooLnY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Kensington, in the county of Hartford and State of Connecticut, have invented a new and Improved Machine for Making Paper Cups, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to machines formak- 1o ing cups of thin material, as paper, and

which are commonly known as sanitary drinking cups, and an object of my invention, among others, is to provide a machine of this class that shall produce cups in a particularly efficient manner.

One form of machine embodying-my in vention and in the construction and use of which the objects herein set out, as well as others, may be attained, is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in, Which Figure 1 s a new in side elevation of a machine embodying my invention, some of the duplicate parts of the mechanism being omitted for sake of clearness.

Fig. 19 isa like View illustrating the relative position-of the members in an advanced stage ofthe. folding operation. Fig. 20 is another view similar to Fig. 18 and illustrating the relative position of the members of the folding mechanism at the completion of the folding 50 .aflixing the bottoms to the cups. The scale eration. Fig. 21 is a detail view, scale en larged, in central vertical section illustrat-' "ing the construction and operation of the mechanism for spinning the upper edges of the cup bodies.

In the accompanying drawings the nu-- meral 10 indicates the frame, of my improved machine that may be constructed ofv any suitable material, preferably embody-. ingiside parts or legs supporting a bed 11, one part 12 of which is raised above 'the other part. A driving shaft 13 is mounted in the frame with a driving pulley mounted 'thereon, and this shaft is connected by intermeshing gears with a cam shaft 14. A

feed and gumming mechanism is driven from the cam shaft as by'a sprocket chain '15 passing around 'a sprocket wheel 16 on a gumming" roll'shaft 17 having a gear 18 meshing with various other gears and pinions common to the gumming and feed mechanism that maybe of any approved form and constructionconstituting no part of the present invention and for which reason a detailed description is 'OIIIIttGd herein it'being sufiicient'to state that 'blanlfsf are ta en from a pile 19 on the table upon which they 'rest and are passed between a feed roll on the shaft 17 and one on the shaft 20, a gumming roll ,on the shaft 17 being supplied with gum on a narrow circumferential strip from a daubing roll in a well known manner and at such part of the gumming roll as will apply the gum to one edge of the blank. From. the gumming roll and feed roll 20 the blanks pass between the membersof a pair of feed rolls 21 from which they are delivered to a body forming or folding turret, the latter term being hereinafter used for the sake of brevity. This folding turret is secured to a folding turret shaft 23 rotatably mounted in a folding turret frame 24 secured to and rising from the bed 11, a portion of this frame projecting below the bed through an opening therein, The-turret include a series of mandrels 25 rigidly disposed and of the shape of the cups to be produced on the machine. A feed finger shaft 26 is mounted to rock in the side parts 27 of the feed and gumming mechanism, and feed fingers 28,

secured to and projecting from saidshaft, extend between the shafts of the feed rolls 21, said rolls being larger than the shafts and comparatively short. These fingers have plates to encounter the back edge of the blanks as they are delivered from the feed,

rolls on to the mandrels, the plates 22 operating to push the blanks against flanges 29 at the'bases of the mandrels. The shaft 26 is rocked by a feed finger arm 30 pivotally connected with a rod 9 that is movedlongitudinally by a cam (not shown) on the gummingroll shaft 17, the cam being timed to move the fingers against each blank as it is delivered from the feed rolls 21.

The folding turret is rotated intermittently as bymeans of a ratchet wheel 31 secured to its shaft 23 and moved by a pawl 32 pivoted on a pawl lever 33 loosely mount-- ed on the shaft 23 and operated by a rod 34 actuated by a folding turret eed cam 35 on the cam shaft 14, these parts eing timed'in their movements: to impart a step by step motion to the turret after the folding of each blank uponthe mandrel. I

A folding frame, including side bars 36 a and a supporting bar 37, is mounted to slide "in guideways in the side parts 27, these side.

bars being connectedby links with folding levers 38 secured to a rock shaft 39-mounted in bearings'on the side parts 27 and actu- 1 ated by a folding rod 40 connected-with anarm secured to the shaft, 39.. The end of that'has a cam operating upon aroll .upon

this rod is forked and straddles the shaft 17 Happenin bar 37 their folding ends being forced normally toward each other, as by a spring (see Fig. 3), such ends also being spaced apart 'sufiiciently to enable them to pass the mandrels in contact therewith and to nearly fold the blanks about the mandrels, the edges of the blanks, however, not

being closed together by these folders.

Stops 244 on the bar 37 limit the movement of the folders toward each other;

Holders 42, conforming to the cross sectional shape of the mandrels, are pivoted ders upon the holders to retain them in their open position, these latch levers being held, as by means of springs, in position to normally engage the holders, ,(see Figs.- 3,

5,'and 18 of the drawings)'. In the construction herein shown each lever has three arms, one of which engages; a holder, an-

Tother having a spring secured thereto, and

the other projecting into the path of move ment of trips 46 secured to arms 8 projecting from the supporting bar 37. A trip is provided for each of the holders on amandrel and they are so arranged that one holder is released before the other so that the edges of the blanks will be overlapped and notabut against each other as the holders force them into contact with the 'man- 4 drel. The parts for rotating the folding turret, and for reciprocating the foldingv frame are so formech'arranged and operated that the trips move in one direction to operate the latch'levers'while the folding turret is at rest, and theidle movement of the trips (in the' opposite direction) takes place in time and to the proper extent to disengage the latch levers and trips and place-the latter in position to operate upon the latch levers of the next succeeding turret'whenit shall have been moved to position for this operation. The holders 42 also act as folders, 'in that they complete 7,

the folding operation.

After a blank has been delivered to a folding mandrel and folded thereon, this mandrel-is rotated into position to receive a forming vcone 47 shaped to fit over the 'mandrels and closely forming the cups thereon. This forming coneis secured to v and depends from =,one end of a. forming cone supporting rod 48 mounted for reciprocating movement inthe upper part of a uide frame 49 on top of asupporting frame 50 rising from the bed-114 A guide 51 having bearmgs-onthe' side parts of the and frame 49 is secured to the rod 48 and is connected by links 52 with a forming cone lever 53 secured to a forming cone rock shaft 54 having an arm '55 with a forming cone operating rod, 56 adjustably se cured thereto (see Fig. -1 of the drawings). The lower end of this rod is connected to-one end of a forming cone actuating lever 57, the opposite end of said lever being loosely mounted on a supporting rod'63 secured to the side parts of the frame, and a forming cone cam 58 on the shaft 14 engages said lever to operate it to move the forming cone out of contact with the cups upon the mandrels.

A holder releasing plate 59 is mounted in a guide 60 depending from the bed underneath the mandrels when in their rearmost positions, the lower end of this plate being pivotally connected by a link 61 with a holder releasing lever 62 loosely mounted on the rod 63 and resting, intermediate its ends, for operation by a holder releasing cam 64 on the cam shaft 14. This holder releasing plate includes a cross piece 65 with hook supporting rods 66 rising therefrom and having counter-poised releasing hooks 67 pivotally secured at their upper ends in position to engage releasing pins 68 projecting fromthe side of the holders 42. As a mandrel comes to rest above the holder releasing mechanism, the members of which are formed and positioned to operate, at this time, said mechanism operates to engage thereleasing hooks. 67 with the .pins upon the holders and then moves to open the holders to an extent to be engaged time as they are again released by the trips 46, as hereinbefore described. As the foldingturret rotates the pins 68 are drawn out from engagementwith the hooks 67.

The position of rest of the folding turret is determined bya detent lever 213 pivotally mounted on the bed and having a detent engaging notches 214 in a disk 216 secured to the turret shaft. The detent and notches ..are beveled so that the proper amount of-force applied to rotate the turret will disengage the detent from the notches. The detent is caused to yieldingly engage the notches as by means of a spring'215 secured at one end to the detent lever and at its opposite end to a leather band 220 that passes around the disk 216 and is secured at its end to the bed 11 and operates to prevent excessive rotation of the turret; A cam shaft 217 driven as by means of a sprocket chain 218 from the gumroll shaft 17 bears a folding turret justifying cam 219' that is formed to pressthe detent lever 213 toward the disk 216, and at this time,

and while operations are" being performed onblanks onihis turret, prevent the detent from disengagingthe notches-in the disk.

I When however the detent held by the latch levers 45 until such engages the notches the band brake 220 is under the least tension, and when the cam 219 does not press upon the, detent lever the least resistance to the movement of the turret is exerted and this at the time ,the pawl and ratchet mechanism hereinbefore described is under operation torotate the turret. At this time the cam 219 is formed to permit the lever 213 to move torelease the detent, thus tightening the band brake that acts to restrain rotative movement of the turret and prevent its over-running.

A presser 221 is mounted on a slide on a slide bar 222 secured to. the supporting frame 50, which slide is actuated by a presser cam lever 223 pivotally mounted on the frame and actuated as by a presser cam- I 224 on the shaft 217, a tucker cam 225 also passes between the. two folds. at the joint and insures the smoothness of the under flap. i reversing turret is rotatably mounted 1n reversing turret uprights 69, each formed in two sections and rising from a reversing turret slide 70 supported for reciprocating movement in a slideway 7-1 in the bed 11. Links 72 connect the slide with a reversing turret slide operating leveif 73, as herein shown, this being a two part lever, secured at its lower end to a rockshaft 74 mounted in the lower side parts ofthe frame of the machine and having an arm 75 connected by a rod '76 with a reversing turret slide -operating cam 77 on the cam shaft 14.

Another rod' 78, connected with the lever 73 intermediate its ends, is actuated by another reversing turret slide operating cam 7 9 on the cam shaft 14, the earns 77 and-79 cooperating, one tomove the reversing turret in one direction and the other to move it in the opposite direction. This reversing turret is rotated as bymeans of a ratchet 80 secured to the turret shaft and engaged by a pawl 81 on'a pawl supporting lever 82 loosely mounted on the turret shaft. One end of this lever is locatedv to strike a pawl operat- .ing lever 83 pivotally secured to and extending-through the bed 11, the opposite end of this lever being pivotally connected with a reversing turret pawl operating rod 110 having a lengthwise movement imparted to it by means of a reversing turret pawl op-- erating cam 111 secured to the cam shaft 14.-

The parts justdescribed and com-posing" the reversing turret rotating mechanism are arranged, formed and operated, to give to the reversing turret a one step rotating I said turret comes to rest at the backward;

limit of its sliding movement. The degree of this rotating movement of the reversing turret is governed by a regulating pawl pivotally mounted on a post 8 1 rising from the bed 11, and havinga pawl actuating arm 85 and a ratchet stop arm 86, the

former under the influence of a spring 247 to engage pawl actuating pins 87 projecting from the side of a regulating ratchet '88 se cured to the reversing turret shaft 89, and the latter to engage the teeth of the ratchet wheel to stop its movement. As the slide 70 is moved backward, that is away from that end of the machine into which the blanks are fed, carrying the reversing turret and the regulating ratchet, a pin 87 on the latter strikes the arm 85, the regulating ratchet having rotating movement as well.

as bodily movement at this time. Contact of a pin with said arm moves the stop arm 86 into the ath of the teeth of the ratchet and the latter is therefore brought to rest with the mandrels on the turret in proper position for the operations to be performed.

The hub 90- ofthe reversing turret is secured to the turret-shaft 89, and a clamping cam on a cam collar 91 is loosely mounted on the shaft and projects into a recess extending from one side of the hub axially thereinto. Reversing mandrels 92 are secured to the hub 90, as by mandrel holders 93. having sloping peripheral surfaces to closely fitthe inner sloping walls of the mandrels, the reduced shanks of these 7 holders projecting into radially formed recesses in the hub andbeing held therein as by set screws (see Fig. 5). These reversingmandrels are of the female type, being formed to receive the cup bodies within them, sticking prongs 95 projecting from the upper edge of each mandrel in position to cover the seam in the cup body and assist 1n the sticking operation. A. cup clamp within each mandrel conslsts of clamping jaws 94 pivotally secured to the mandrel holder, and acting through notches 96 in the edges of the. forming man dre ls 25 to clamp a cup body against the inner wall of the reversing mandrel. A toggle 97 extending into one edge of each jaw' Y connects it 1th a clamp operating plunger 98 projecting through the holder wlth' its inner edge touching the cam collar 91. Clamp operating springs 99 are located in recesses in the sides of the holders, each spring pressing at. one end against.

a wall vof-the recess and. at 'its other end againsta pin or shoulder on the plunger, .the sprmgsjthus holding the. plu'ngers normally incontact with the clamp operating cams. Each mandrel 25 is shown herein as having four notches. r

' It-is desirable that the cup clamps shall source of power.-

act to clamp the cups within the mandrels when the turret is at rest, in order that the cups shall alloccupy the same position on the mandrels and not be=disarranged asby a jar in the starting movement of the turret when the clamp is'loose.y I therefore provide a cam actuating arm 100'secured to the cam sleeve and arranged to be engaged by a cam operating pawl;101 pivotally secured to one end of a pawl support 102 projecting from one of the hook supporting rods 66.

Thus as the releasing hooks :67 operate? to release the holders 42 on a mandrel 'inthe.

delivery position on the foldingtur-ret', they- I Fig. 9) determining the position of rest of said collar. The shape of the cam'is suchas to hold the cup clamps engaged with the cups until after the spinning operation is completed, and it may bereleased at any time thereafter. In the machine as illustrated and described herein the smaller part of the cam against. which the plungers 98 rest is concentric forfnearly one-half the distance around the cam, and at this point resumes its larger concentric shape so thatat the time one clamp is actuated to clamp a cup the clamp on thediametric'ally opposite side ofthe turret is released.

sliding movement in the top part-of the.up--

A spinning mechanism consists of a spin-.

rights 69, the side parts ofthis'spinningframe being connected by pins in slots with r a spinning frame actuating lever consistingv oftw arms 106, a rock shaft 107, and an arm. 1 8. The shaft 107 1s mounted in supports 109 projecting from the turretup rights 69 and the arm. 108 is pivotally connected with a spring seated anchoringmember 112 mounted on an anchoring support 1113 securedto the bed 11 (see Figs. land 2 of the drawings) This arrangement of the spinning frame actuating levercauses the spinning frame tolbe lowered ateach. forward movement of the reversing turret,

that-is, towardthe feeding end of the ma chine, and to be" raised -in a reverse 1novement." v p A spinning disk 11 1, of any ordinary conll stru'ction, iss'ecured to a-sleeve shaft llfi,

mounted in the spinning frame 104; "and g i having a pinion 116 secured theretoaandi driven bymeans of a train of pinionsfrom: a shaft 117 mounted in bearingsjin one of 3} the uprights 69 and driven as by means of a belt passing around idlers to any. suitable A pinion 119 'meshing with the pinion 116, constituting one of the above mentioned train of pinions, is sufli-- ciently wide to permit the requiredmovement of the pinion 116 with the spinning frame without disengagement of the pinions, A clamp disk 120 is secured to the lowerend of a rod 121 loosely mounted in the sleeve shaft 115, said rod having springs, attached to the spinning frame and to a cross bar secured to the end of the rod, to

hold the disk'normally in its lowermost position on the spinning frame and as determined by a stop 122 secured to the upper end of the rod (see Fig. 5 of the drawings). When the'spinning frame is moved downward by the mechanism hereinbefore described, the clamp disk 120 will be forced tightly into a cup within a mandrel, thus clamping the upper edge of the cup firmly within the mandrel for the spinning operation. The contact of the disk with the cup holds the former from further movement in this direction but the frame continues its movement-in order to bring the spinning disk .114 into operation upon the edge of the cup, the springs hereinbefore described yielding for this purpose.

A bottom forming and aflixing turret,

which for the sake of brevity,will be termed herein as a finishing turret, is rotatably mounted upon a finishing turret post 123 secured to the bed 12 and rising from the center of a round recess in the upper part thereof within which recess anti-friction 130. An actuating lug 131 projects from each of the carrier sleeves and actuating pins 132 from each of the plungers, said lugs projecting through slots in the bottom parts of the rim and arms and extending lengthwise of the arms, and said pins projecting through said slots and also through lengthwise slots in the carrier sleeves (as shown in Fig. 11 of the drawings).

Star wheels 133134, located one above the other, are secured to the upper part of the turret body, the points upon these wheels being staggered one with respect to the other (as shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings); An.' actuator supporting plate 135 is secured to the upper? end of the finishing turret post-123 and has a groove to receive a finishing turret actuator 136 slidably mounted in said groove and having detents 137'138 to engage the teeth of said star wheels. These detents are pointed to fit into the spaces between the points of the star wheels, said points, however, being rounded so that the points of the detents will touch slightly at'one side, and acting upon the sloping surface of a tooth on a Wheel will give the wheel a one step move ment. Two of these one step movements,

-in the construction of machine herein shown, are required to bring each of the mandrels from one position of rest to the next succeeding position of rest, these two one step movements being caused by a complete reciprocating movement of the actuator imparted by. mechanism consisting of links 139 pivotally connecting the actuator with a lever consisting of a rock shaft 140, an arm 141 pivotally connected with the links and secured to said shaft, and an arm 7 142 secured to said shaft and pivotally connected with an actuator rod 143, extending into position to be operated by a finishing turret actuator operating cam 144 upon a finishing turret cam shaft 145 mounted in the side parts of the frame. The rock shaft 140 is mounted in supports 146 rising from the bed 12 of the base. It will be noted from this construction that the actuator 136, when moved in one direction by the mechanism described, will cause one of the detents to give the turret a. one step movement, .and as it is moved inv the opposite direction, the other detent will give to the turret another one step movement, thus bringing each of the mandrels on the turret from one position of rest to the next succeeding position of rest.

By employing three turrets arranged in series for producing cups, I am enabled, through the agency of the intermediate or reversing turret, to reverse the cup-bodies end for end relatively to the mandrels thereon, so that their rim ends will face outward when carried upon said mandrels to permit such rim ends to be spun, if desired. This vrelative reversal of the cup bodies as tothe mandrels of the intermediate or reversing turret enables said bodies to be arranged on the mandrels of the finishing turret in the same relative position as on the mandrels of the body forming turret, that is, so that the bottom ends of the cup bodies'will extend outward when carried upon the mandrels of the finishing turret to permit the bottoms of the cups to be spun .to the best advantage. In the operation of thesethree turrets, the hollow mandrels of the reversing turret are telescoped over the cup bodies then being carrled upon the mandrels of the body forming turret.

Then, when. the reversing turret retires, the

cup bodies as carried by it, have their rim ends outward and their bottom ends inward. In this position the cup bodies are presented to the mandrels of the finishing turret which are positioned within the cup 55 operation by a paper feed cam 165 on the bodies then located upon the insides of the.

hollow mandrels of the reversing turret so that when the mandrels of the reversing and finishing turrets are separated, the bottom "ends of the cup bodies extend outward in convenient position for the bottoming operation. v

Finishing mandrels 147 are secured to the carrier sleeves 128,, these mandrels being of the general form of the cups being made in the machine and of. a size to enter the reversing mandrels 92 to such an extent that the cup bodies will project for some distance beyond the edge of the finishing mandrels. A finishing mandrel actuator 148 is mounted in grooves 149 in the wall at each side of a slot 150 through the bed 12, this actuator rising preferably above the surface of the bed and having an opening into Which the lugs 131 are passed. A positioning plate 151 is secured to the upper part of the bed 12 and it has an annular groove in whichthe lugs 131 travel to hold the mandrels in their proper positions and also to direct the lugs into the opening in the actuator 148. A finishing mandrel actuator connecting rod 152 connects the actuator with a finishing mandrel actuating le-' ver mounted on a supporting rod 157 and extending between the. side parts of the frame and having an arm 153 that is pivotally connected to said rod and also hav ing another arm 154 that is preferably adjustably pivotally connected with afinishing mandrel actuating rod 155 engaged with and operated by a finishing mandrel actuating cam 156 on the cam shaft .145.

It willbe understood that all of these parts,

including the cam, are shaped, positioned and timed, to impart longitudinal move- .ment to the finishing mandrels 147 at the proper times to cause them to enter and emerge from the reversing mandrels 92.

A roll 158 of paper tape of awidth to produce a disk to form the bottoms of the cups, together with the flanges thereon, is

rotatablymounted on a paper'roll support 159 secured to and rising fromthe bed 12. This tape passes between feed rolls,one 160, of which has a'ratchet 161 rigidly connected therewith for rotating it to feed the paper to cutting and forming dies. A pawl 162 is pivoted on a bell crank lever 163 loosely mounted on the shaft of the roll and actu- -ina ated by a-paper feed rod 164 extending for the drawings), the end of this plunger havdie to fit within the cutter opening in the die 167. A forming plunger 171 is of the finishing mandrels.

slidably mounted in the cutting plunger, and the latter is reciprocated as by means of an actuating pin 172 extending into a slot in a cutting and formin cam 173 secured to a cutting and forming cam shaft 174' mounted in cars 175 on the under side of a shelf 176 extending from the bed 12, the paper roll support 159 and the plunger 169 in fact being mounted upon this part ofthe bed 12. The cam shaft 174 is driven by a gear 177 thereon, meshing with a gear 178 on the cam shaft 145 (see Fig. 1 of the drawings). A forming plunger actuating pin 179 projects through a slot 180 in the cutting plunger and. into a groove in the cutting and forming cam. 173 (see Fig. 12 of the drawings).

The cutting and forming mechanism, in-- cluding the cams, are so positioned, shaped. and operated, that the cutting and forming plungers will move substantially together toward the guide and forming die and in substantially the same relative position as shown in Fig. 12 of the drawings. The plunger 169 passes through the guide and into the cutting die to out a disk from the strip 166 of paper and pass it into the re-. cess inthe die 167. Movement of the out ting plunger now stops and the forming plunger is moved to pass the blanks through the opening in the die 167, thus forming a flange on the disks and passing the disks into the bottom receiving recesses 181 in'the finishing mandrels 147, the flanges on the bottoms lying against the side walls of said recesses. At the completion of this operation, the formation of the cam slots in the cam 173 is such as to return the cutting and forming plungers to their former positions and the turret rotating mechanism, as hereinabove described, finally brings a fin-- ishing mandrel supplied with a bottom, by a step by step movement, into an intermediate position and then by another step by step movement into position opposite a 110 reversing mandrel on the reversing turret, at which pointthe finishing mandrels are projected, in the manner hereinbefore described, into cups within the-spinning mandrels, the mandrelg being'so shaped, how- 115 ever, that the bottom edges of the-cups projectfor some distance beyondthe outer ends Cup holding mechanism 'is now operated to clamp the cups in place upon each finishing mandrel, this holding mechanism appurtenant to each mandrel consisting of a cup holding clamp 182 secured to the end of a holding clamp lever. 183 .pivotally mounted in a projection-184 from the fin ishing mandrel 147. A spring 185 forces each clamp in position to .clamp the cup upon the mandrel, and a clamp holder 186' engaging a lug 187 on the clamp lever holds the clamp released from thecup and. against tension of said spring. The clamps conform to the shape of the outer surfaces of are positioned to rest against and exert a pull upon 'the beads at the upper edges of the cup bodies, as shown in Fig. 14. Holder stops 237 prevent excessive movement of the holders 186.

As a finishing mandrel is moved forward into a reversing mandrel a clamp releasing finger 207 on a clamp holder 186 is moved against a clamp holder releasing trip 208 projecting from the support for the reversing turret.

As a finishing mandrel is moved from an intermediate position toa position to receive a cup body from a reversing mandrel a guide 209 secured to the bed 12 is located in position to encounter the actuating pins 132 projecting from the plungers 129 and, guide them into the opening in a bottom placer actuator slide 193.

A finishing mandrel, by the operationof the turret rotating mechanism, as hereinbefore described, is now given a step by step movement from the point at which it received the cup body, to an intermediate position, and then by another step by step movement into position opposite the bottom securing mechanism, consisting of a bottom spinning disk 188, of any desired form, se-

cured to a shaft mounted in bearings on a 35 bottom spinning-slide 189 and driven as by a belt from any suitable source of power passing around a pullev. 190 secured to the shaft of the spinning disk. The slide 189 has lateral projections located in grooves 191 in the wallskof aslot 192 extending laterally through the bed 12. The'bottom placer actuating slide 193 also has lateral projections in the grooves 191, and each of the slides 189 and 193 is actuated respectively 'by a spinning cam .194 and a bottom placer cam 195 on a cam shaft 196 mounted in bearings underneath the bed 12 and driven as by means of intermeshing gears from the finishing cam shaft 145 (as shown in Fig. 12 of the drawings).

In operation, as a finishing mandrel ar-. rives at the position shown in Fig. '12, the

slide 193 is moved by its cam 195 to push I the bottom toward the mouth of the recess 181 in the mandrel so that the edge of the flange on the bottom will be flush with the edge of the bottom of the cup body 241,

these edges being thuslocated very near the" bottom spinning disk 188, which disk being rotated as hereinbefore described is now moved by the cam 194 against the edges of the bottom and cup body to spin and roll the edges of the cupbody and the flange on the bottom 240 together inward, thus 'securing the two parts firmly together. The

the bottoms may be forced. by the bottom mediate position between that of spinning .to a cup clamp releasing rod 205 extending for operation bya clamp releasing cam 206 bottoms 240 maybe frictionally held' in the recesses 181 as by a bead 243 on the inner surface of the recess, and past which bead placers 130; a

In the step by step movements of the turret hereinbefore described, a finishing mandrel is now brought from the position in which it received the cup body into a position diametrically opposite thereto, in which position an ejector 197 having lateral projections located in grooves 198 in a slot 199 in the bed 12, is moved against the edge of the cup and through an ejector slot 242 in the mandrel to pushthe cup therefrom, this ejector being connected by a rod 200 with an ejector lever 201 pivotally mounted on the rod 157 and in engagement with an e ector cam 202 on the finishing cam shaft 145, these parts being shaped and arranged to eject the cups at the proper time. Be

fore reaching this point for the ejection of the cups, and at the time of rest of the turret with a finishing mandrel in the inter- 1 and that of ejection, the cup clamp 182 is released by a cup clamp actuating finger. 203 on a cup clamp releasing lever 204 pivotallyv secured at one end to the actuator supporting plate 135 and at the other end on the finishing camshaft 145, the finger 203 being pressed against an ,end of the holding. clamp lever 183, raising the'opposite clamp bearing end until the lug 187 passes the shoulder onthe holder and the clamp falls, engaging the shoulder on the lug and holding the clamp inits raised position.

In order to securelv hold the cups upon the finishing mandrels during the operation of spinning and securing the bottoms, a cup clamp 227 is carried by the bottom spinning slide 189, the clamp being supported 11 upon headed pins 228 projecting from the bearings for the shaft of the bottom spinning disk. This clamp is yieldingly held by springs upon the pins, so. that when the slide is moved toward the mandrelthe clamp will first bedorought tightly intoen-' gagement with the cups upon the mandrels .and then the springs will yield,permitting the spinning disk to moveagainst the bottoms of the cups to perform its work.

The finishing turret. cam shaft 145 is driven as by a chain 229 passing from the 'cam shaft 14 to a sprocket, wheel 230 secured to the shaft 145. A disk' supporting lever 211 is pivotally mounted upon the" shaft and a turret moving disk 210 is the turret, as it is rotated, as by means of intermeshing gears, one of which 231 is secured to the cam shaft 145. The degree of pressure of the shoes against the turret maybe controlled as by an adjusting screw 212 extending through the lever and with its end abutting against the bed 12 (see liig. 13 of the drawings). The shoes arevso lo 'cated and the gears areso timed that the shoes will make contact with the turret just before a detent engages a tooth on one of the star wheels 133 or 134, the disk thus assisting in starting the movement of the finishing turret.

The bottoms of the cups frequently bear some mark, printed or embossed thereon, and I have provided. means whereby this may be done during the formation of the cup. In carrying out this ideamarking plates 232 are located in the periphery of the feed roll 160, and these may be supplied With ink from an inking roll 233 rotated in contact with an ink daubing roll 234 receiving its ink from a reservoir 235. It will be understood that these plates and ink rolls are so constructed that the ink will be applied only to the portions of the plates 4 intended to make an impression.

It will be noted that the star or toothed wheels 133 and 134 not only comprise a means for moving the finishing turret, but they .also, by reason of the angular space between the teeth, form a justifying means to determine the position of the turret, and this justifying means constitutes a material part of my invention. The movement of the turret is started by contact of a detent 137 ings). These rolls are located in the path of movement of the ends of the holders 42, as the folding turret is rotated, and operate to press the holders in close engagement with the blank on the turret. Asan aid to the proper working of the bottom spinning disk I interpose a. seating spring 246 back of the disk so that it is yieldingly supported,

' its connection with the shaft beingsuch as bottoms.
